Up until a few years ago Oscar was a very insignificant planet, but recently it has been the cause of near conflict between the DDS and HCS.
Oscar was discovered in the 2070s but was not settled until 2092 when the effect of some climate engineering started in 2075 began to take effect and the climate cooled to near Earth like conditions. Oscar was settled illegally by both humans and clones, both refugees from the late 3rd Clone War and this was the source of the later problems.
The two sides have formed unofficial nations on the planet's only continent though the human side (Oscar Human Authority) was rather chaotic, falling quickly into a dictatorship. The New Clone Nation Of Oscar (NCNO) was not much better though. Both sides seem to be largely united by hatred for the other side.
Conflict between the Human Authority and NCNO soon drew the attention of the DDS and HCS. The NCNO appealed to the HCS for military assistance. The DDS told the HCS not to intervene and there was a minor skirmish. After talks between the DDS and HCS there was an uneasy truce with ships from both sides present to make sure there are no illegal weapon shipments to the two sides.
Then the Human Authority collapsed after it's dictator tried to force the DDS to help them by kidnapping The Orchid. After he was killed anarchy returned to the streets. The humans are now too busy fighting each other to bother with the NCNO. The NCNO began to re-arm it's army the Clone Army of Oscar (CAO) with HCS help, the blockade gradually falling. The DDS began to openly arm the Oscar Terran Army (OTA) in reply. Both the DDS and HCS agreed to not intervene directly though both sides did break this, it is common knowledge that "advisers" were heavily active on both sides.
The CAO, with a greater population and a more stable government behind it, eventually defeated the OTA and conquered the whole planet. Many humans, especially those involved with the OTA and human government were allowed to leave Oscar in DDS ships. Hardline humans have begun an insurgency against the HCS and CAO. The HCS have accused the DDS of supplying these insurgents with weapons though the DDS have denied it saying the insurgents are using weapons left behind by the DDS when they vacated the planet when the OTA fell.
Although the DDS have warned the HCS not to annex the planet a legion was soon "invited" to Oscar by the NCNO to assist with security. It is likely that Oscar will one day become part of the Clone Star Empire, and it's location would make it a very strategic position for the HCS. The DDS have already begun the process to bring the nearby world of New Jakarta into the UNP and DDS.
